It is harvested between the months of August and September, the perfect time for eating them fresh. Depending on the pear's state of ripeness, it will display differences in terms of flavour, sweetness, acidity and softness or roughness. It is a juicy fruit used to make jams, preserves and compotes. The dessert pears in red wine is also made with it, making use of this area's delicious wines.
